I had the opportunity to use the truck today. Drives just fine, seems the chatter is gone. It was lousy the other day. It will not slip, grind or chatter now, it's weird. I looked under it for signs of a leak, checked the little clutch master cyl too. The fluid is clean and to the proper level. At this point I suggested to my buddy not to look for trouble and just drive it.
If we put a clutch in it, we will put a Centerforce Series II disc, and pressure plate, along with a new TOB, Pilot bearing, flywheel, and slave cyl. That should set him up for a long time, that's if and when the present clutch fails.
